The Greg Bennett Show

Kristian Blummenfelt returns to the show as the Tokyo Olympic Gold medalist


Listen Later

Kristian Blummenfelt was last on the show in episode 14. I said in that episode, that I believe the next generation of Triathletes is here. And I don’t mean to brag, I simply have been so impressed with his preparation and build over the last 10 years... I said in the episode, that I believed he would win the Gold medal in Tokyo.
 
Since that episode, I’ve had his coach Arild Tveiten episode 69 and his training partner Gustav Iden episode 52 on the show. Between all of them, I listened to what they were doing for preparation for these Games and I was left without a doubt, that they would be ready.
 
In this episode, Kristian breaks down the race, from the false start all the way through to his incredible surge to victory with just over a kilometer left in the run. He describes his preparation and his mindset going into the Games, and what that medal means to him.
 
We conclude by discussing what's next. It blew my mind what he has planned.
 
What a thrill this was to talk to the Olympic Champion 4 days post his race.
